However, the Terva juhlaolut (Tar celebration beer) was really tasty and I have a feeling that Savukataja will be in the same vein. I have to try that.
I tried Nokkospils at Helsinki Beer Festival, and it was a real disappointment.

Oh dear, Boxbeers has an autumn sale to clear some space from the warehouse. Naturally class A beers won't be discounted, but there are lots of interesting quality craft beers to try for fairly cheap prices (with some class A beers too). For example, Thornbridge's Eldon should is a classy imperial stout. Shipping is free after 90€, which I have no problem exceeding.

As a teenager, I always wanted a beer advent calendar, but my parents never bought me one. So, this year, ages later, I finally got one for myself. 24 (partially rare) different beers coming up in December.

Which one did you choose?

This seems to be a picture of the 2016 edition with different brews, but it's the same brand.

I like it that many of the calendars have a couple of brews that are exclusive to the calendar. I'm going with Mikkeller this year. When it comes out.
RE: Beer Recommendation Thread - Aldhissla - 10-24-2017
Oh man, I'd love a subscription from one of these shops, but it'll mkost likely turn out to be too costly for me; plus my wife would certainly proclaim me an alcoholic (which she already does from time to time), as ignorant as that may be.
. Still, ordering a calendar might be something worth considering (next year). How much are they (approximately)?
RE: Beer Recommendation Thread - Godflesh - 10-24-2017
My two top choices were the Mikkeller calendar and Saveur Biere. I'm betting SB calendar is a little cheaper, but the Mikkeller one has not been announced yet. On the other hand, Mikkeller has just a little more quality, although SB offers more than money's worth too. SB calendar is €69,90 which is very cheap for 24 quality beers and exclusives, but they don't deliver to Finland anymore, so I have no problem choosing the calendar this year. Of course a few beers are a bit lame each year, but most are great. Nobody can offer that many awesome beers for that money.

Thanks! We'll see what happens next year.
RE: Beer Recommendation Thread - Godflesh - 10-24-2017
Boxbeers has quality too, but the calendar price is almost double the price of SB. I'd pay that too, as I know the quality will be great.
